The Kansas City Chiefs fired former head coach Todd Haley in the middle of the 2011 season but not the team could indirectly be responsible for helping Haley get another head coaching gig.
After leaving the Chiefs, Haley was hired to be the offensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers but now the Arizona Cardinals, the team left to come to the Chiefs, is requesting permission to interview Haley to be their head coach.
From Jason La Canfora:

The Cardinals were reportedly very interested in Andy Reid, however the Chiefs intercepted Reid yesterday in Philly. The interview lasted nine hours and the most recent reports suggest Reid is close to a deal with KC. As such, Reid has pushed back his meeting with the Cards.
Now the Cards are looking at other options, which clearly includes Haley.
It would be pretty funny if the Chiefs ended up inadvertently helping Haley get another shot as a head coach. We shall see.

I know this the team had a lot of fight in it and was disciplined unlike the crap we saw this year.

Given his choice of OC and a decent DC, I still think that Haley would make a good HC in the NFL.

I feel that he was hamstrung with all of the politics that go with Pioli being the man in charge.

I liked Haley all the way up to the point he ran off Weis. From what I have heard in how he treated Weis at practice and such. It is no wonder he and Pioli did not get along. He will need to temper that attitude to keep loyalty of the coaches on his side or he will be losing OC year after year.

Haley can be a really good head coach if he just learns to tame his emotions a tad that was a part his problem
